Business as usual at Toshiba South Africa

With the recent departure of Toshiba Computer Systems General Manager for Southern Africa, Andre Rossouw, to pursue personal interests, it is business as usual at Toshiba South Africa.

Toshiba is in the process of finding a suitable replacement candidate for Rossouw, and an appointment will be announced in due course.

In the four years that Rossouw held the position of General Manager for Southern Africa, Toshiba has enjoyed significant growth in the local market, particularly with regard to brand awareness amongst its local channel partners, resellers and end-users.

“Andre formed a key part of the original team that established Toshiba’s official presence in South Africa,” says Reon Coetzee, Sales Manager for Toshiba Southern Africa.

“He was also instrumental in propelling Toshiba further into the African market, with solid partnerships formed in Nigeria, Ghana, Angola, Zambia and Kenya, and growing our market share in the East African region,” he continued.

Toshiba’s team remains heavily committed to the African market and will continue to grow from strength to strength as additional organisations are being added to Toshiba’s increasing list of channel partners, and as the local sales and marketing teams continue to grow.

“Toshiba wishes to thank Andre Rossouw for his passion and dedication to the brand, and wishes him all the very best for his future endeavours,” concludes Coetzee.
